Design Challenge
One of the challenge facing is how to define the interior contemporary design style to match with the architectural structure shape in a more harmony vision at the same time with a balanced consideration of site, environment and program requirements. Further challenges are how to make the most efficient and economical floor plan configurations to maximize the percentage of floor area devoted to guest rooms and keep to a minimum the amount of circulation and service space, how to reduce as much as possible the walking distances for both the guest and housekeeping and management staff, how to locate public and service elevators and how to do the most appropriate configuration for the guest room to give the guests a greater connection to the site. With only steps from the seaside, proper construction materials chosen are also challengeable.
Inspiration
Drawing inspiration from the local elements of tea culture and the coastal surroundings, the designer use modern bespoke furnishing and light color palette to define the interior design style so as to better coincide with the exterior heavy structure shape in a more balance and harmony way. Inspired by the universal story of migration and reunion, the All Day Dining reflects a contemporary reclaimed farmhouse aesthetic where urban sensibilities and rural roots coexist in harmony.
Project Duration
The project started in 2014 and finished construction in 2017. Hotel start operating in March 2017 in Xiamen.
Operation Flow
The most efficient and economical floor plan configurations are maximized to devote to the guest rooms and keep a minimum amount of circulation and service space to reduce as much as possible the walking distances for both the guest and housekeeping and management staff, to relocate public and service elevators and assign the most appropriate configuration for the guest room to give the guests a greater connection to the site.
